    I detest foundations that have too much yellow in them. Actually, one of the most challenging things in finding good foundations is finding the right match that makes one’s skin look healthy instead of ill. I do best with a neutral shade, but too many are way too warm. That in itself makes the foundation a fail.

      Yesssss!! I feel this! 🤗 I'm gonna keep on trying as hard as I can to grow my channel so I can reach the companies making these foundations and tell them that NEUTRAL and OLIVE Undertoned foundation-wearers need shades as well! ❤️😘❤️

    I absolutely love that six dollar wet and wild Hydrating Tinted whatever…
    It looks beautiful on my dry skin .
    I am a light neutral. When I say light, I’m at the end of the lights. Therefore, sometimes I may have to do a light medium.
    I was at the store with the wet and wild, and the shade match, which is best for me is actually Med Tan which is something I would never ever choose .
    Out of the 20 complexion products that I have none of them are medium 10 and only two or three or light medium … the majority are light neutral.
    Moral of the story, you have to choose your shade in the store … Shade problems aside. It is a beautiful, beautiful product.
    Did I mention it’s six bucks?

    This made me smile; it's like my life-story in 5 won't-work foundations, LOL. I'm so glad to have found a few that worked well for me, but overall I regret nearly every penny I spent on foundation in 2023. Maybe it just wasn't the year for us drier-skinned gals, despite all the claims of "glow" and "radiance." Who knows? I wasn't laughing AT you, Jenny, but WITH you, sometimes it's the only way to make the best of a sucky situation. Thanks for sharing the good, the bad, the beautiful, and the Norm. May the new year bring joy and overflow with blessings for you and your household, my friend. Raises a glass of...well, iced coffee. Love ya! 🧋 😍

      You can laugh at me any time! 😂 I do have funny experiences with these foundations, and as long as I'm bringing people joy, I'm alllll for it! 😂 (but I completely understand that your laughing in a "I'm in-it-with-ya-sister!" way... 🥰 which makes ME really happy! )
      I completely agree with you that this year, and even part of last year, has been so strange in terms of foundation companies using the words "glowy" and "illuminating" for products that clearly aren't...🤦🏻‍♀️ Here's hoping to a better 2024!!! 🎉
      I wish YOU the happiest of New Years my dear Brynda! 🥰💕🎉
      Love you too! 🤗

    I’ve had that Shiseido Foundation in my Sephora basket forever but something always stopped me from buying it. The worst foundation I tried this year was Monika Blunder. The reviews were so good but to me that stuff is library paste! I tried and tried (mixed it with things) but finally gave up.

    After a needed break from social media, I was SO excited to see this video waiting for me!! It amazes me how much our makeup tastes align with each other. We also have a similar hair cut and color!! Even though I stopped buying high end makeup, I will splurge on foundations. I actually purchased the Shiseido foundation, and had exactly the same experience. I tried several times, thinking it was user error.... but it just did not work on my skin, so I returned it. I also couldn't find a shade of the Laura Gellar powder foundation many years ago, and since it has become popular again, I thought I might try it again. So thank you helping me remember my experience.
    I am convinced that this is your year for your channel to grow!! So I hope everyone will click the "like" button and keep these videos in the YT rotation. Whenever there is a foundation I want to try, I will watch many videos on it before purchasing. I'm hoping and praying that people will start using your videos as a reference point! I will also say, I wouldn't mind more full face tutorials, just because I have great respect for your makeup and skincare knowledge. You have been such a breath of fresh air for me personally, my sweet friend!!!❤❤❤
    PS I really like the Elf powder foundation, if I'm in a huge hurry and I have some issues needed coverage!

And they bring me so much joy!) ❤️ Thank you so much for your well wishes for the upcoming year! The plus side to having Covid over the holidays was that I was forced to stay in bed and quarantine... but I didn't feel terrible, so I used that time to write out my upcoming ideas and schedule for my videos and it got me SO EXCITED for 2024!! ❤️ So really it was a blessing!! 🙏🏻
      And I'm so happy I can help you with your foundation decisions! I consider it such an honor that you trust me! 🥰
      xoxoxoxo!!! Talk to you soon! (hope you're feeling well!🙏🏻❤️)

    Is Neutroga Sensitive Skin Foundation the replacement for Hydroboost?

    • @foundationlady
      @foundationlady  Рік тому +2

      Hi there! 🤗 Thanks for your question! ❤️ It appears that Neutrogena still sells their HydroBoost tint, so I don't believe it's been discontinued. However, after reading your comment, I realized that I haven't seen the Hydroboost tint in my local drugstore, since they put out the new serum tint... which is a bummer, since the HydroBoost is an excellent foundation too! Thanks so much for watching and asking such a great question! 💕 I hope you're having a great start to your New Year! 🎉🙏🏻

    I had a bad experience with Radiant Shiseido foundation too! It made my face feel tight. I have dry skin. The shade wasn't great and looked smooth initially but it was not dewy and was flat like you described. The Radiant name is very deceptive.

    • @foundationlady
      @foundationlady  Рік тому +1

      Thank you Kate! ❤️ I could not agree with you MORE about the name! I feel like so many companies the past couple of years have been doing a disservice to themselves by naming foundations "radiant" that are clearly matte. And I think they lose out on customers by doing that too, because there are so many foundation-wearers that like a good matte finish! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with me! 🤗

    Enjoyed this very much. I’ve been very leery of the Laura Geller. She creates for mature customers but I do not trust that powder is best for my skin. Just no. Every instinct tells me no. Too dry, too powdery. I don’t use powder blush or bronzer any more and barely use setting powder. I am surprised about the Shideido. That gets HG rave reviews. Your perspective is helpful. The one UA-camr who raves the most about this is a younger woman so maybe it does not work well on those of us with texture.

    • @foundationlady
      @foundationlady  Рік тому

      Thanks so much for your comment! 🤗 I think you may be right in that the Shiseido just doesn't work as well on my textured skin. I have a few powder foundation (very few!) that I absolutely love, but as I get older, they are much harder to find! 🙃 If you're not a fan of powdery type products, I think you are very wise to steer clear of the Laura Gellar, although I do know that she's come out with a liquid foundation... I'm wondering how that is.... Anyway, thanks so much for chatting with me about your foundation likes/dislikes! I love chatting about foundation! ❤️ Have a wonderful New Year! 🎊🎉

    Question. Did you wear primer’s under these foundations? If so, what type of primer, silicone based, hydrating, matifying etc? It would be great to know for reference, especially as I’m not a primer wearing person. Thank you ❤

    • @foundationlady
      @foundationlady  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks so much for asking this great question! ❤️ Unless I specify in a video that I'm using a primer, then I am just using my regular skincare (moisturizer, serum, etc.) underneath. The more I get into my channel though, the more I am trying NOT to use ANY primers underneath, as I really want to get a feel for how the foundation works on its own, with simple moisturized skin. Unless I know it's something that is just going to be WAY to dry for my skin and I need a little extra moisture. Also, I have a few primers that I enjoy, but for the most part, I'm not a huge "primer person." Thanks again for your great question!! ❤️ Have a wonderful week! 🤗

    Why do luxury brands put fragrance/perfume in their face products? I don’t get it….
    Fragrances are made from alcohol, which is only going to make the product irritate the skin. Never mind the nauseating perfume smell. ..
    I received a lovely Estée Lauder skin care set which I have used before because the products are lovely ! However, the fragrance reminds me of my grandmother’s 1960 Estee Lauder red door perfume… so strong.
    The night creams are so thick and emollient. How ever I first application they burn my sensitive skin… it’s a shame

I'm hoping that they will start to phase out fragrance for complexion related products as they start to hearing more of us say that we prefer them to be fragrance-free! ❤️🙏🏻
